IBEX_Orbit554_Contacts.txt,
for all contacts (4).
We are doing battery cell balancing and the balancing commands are correct and offset by enough time from other commands.
The inertial precession maneuver at perigee of orbit 553 leaves us pointing in safe directions for the orbit 554 arc A ascending and descending sequences:
